The city has been blessed with a warm climate and an endless coastline of magnificent beaches, palm strewn islands and mountains covered with tropical rainforests. Rio's world famous beaches of Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon welcome visitors from all over Brazil, Latin America and the world.

Rio served as Brazil's second capital and contains a vast quantity of architectural masterpieces such as palaces, cathedrals, churches, monasteries, fortresses, mansions and municipal buildings from the 16th century to the present time which played an important role in the country's history. It is the only Latin American city to have been the capital of a European empire. This occured in 1808 when the Portuguese royal family and the entire court fled Lisbon as Napoleon's troops were approaching. Thus, the capital of the Portuguese empire moved to Rio de Janeiro for eleven years.

The New Year's celebrations witness 2 million revelers who gather on Copacabana beach all dressed in white for an unforgettable night of musical shows, dancing, fireworks and merrymaking. The world famous Carnival takes place at the Sambadromo (a stadium built for this event) where the city's samba schools compete and dazzle audiences with luxurious costumes and incredible decorations. There are also more than 400 samba bands that take to the streets all over the city in processions that are followed by thousands of masked and costumed revelers. Some of the other must visit tourist attractions include the world famous Maracana stadium, Sugar Loaf Mountain, the Botanical Garden and Corcovado, the mountain which holds the statue of Christ the Redeemer. This statue was voted as one of the Seven Modern Wonders of the World.

The area was sacred to the Guarani Indians who lived here and named it Iguassu, meaning Big Water. The waterfalls cascade down over fast rapids into the Iguassu river. There is an exhilarating optional excursion to go rafting with the Macuco Safari Boat to Devil's Throat, the largest of the waterfalls whose roar can be heard several miles down river. The Bird Park is another interesting attraction which shows exotic bird species such as macaws, flamingos, ostriches, parrots and storks in a 12 acre subtropical forest location.

Brasilia

Brasilia received the title of Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 1987, granted by UNESCO, for being a landmark of modern architecture and urbanism. Its cultural identity is a miscellany of diverse cultural manifestations of all part of Brazil, inherited from the workers who helped to construct the city and who migrated from many parts of the country.

Brasilia is the third capital of Brazil, being preceded by Salvador (1549-1763), and Rio de Janeiro (1763-1960). The idea of moving the country's capital to a more central region emerged in the 19th century from the fear of possible sea attacks it might suffer - Salvador and Rio de Janeiro are coastal cities. Already in the 20th century the purpose of the capital's change changed - now the transfer to a central region was given to the best administration of the country considering that Brazil is a continental country.

The city was planned by Lucio Costa, by Oscar Niemeyer, responsible for the projects of the monuments, by Burle Marx, planner of gardens and squares, and Athos Bulcao, artist of tile panels. Construction began in 1956 and Brasilia was inaugurated on April 21, 1960, the day of Tiradentes, an important figure in Brazilian history who worked for the independence of Brazil.
